Re: Chipidea USB device goes infinite loop due to interrupt while hw_ep_prime

Hi.

We found an infinite loop inside the function hw_ep_set_halt
(drivers/usb/chipidea/udc.c) if a cablle is repeatedly
connnected/disconnected while ping through RNDIS with chipidea USB device.

Using ftrace tracing, we found that hw_ep_set_halt is called due to error
return of hw_ep_prime(drivers/usb/chipidea/udc.c:202) which is called from
isr_tr_complete_handler -> isr_setup_status_phase -> _ep_queue.

The comment of function hw_ep_prime says (execute without interruption) but
timer interrupt is occurred while hw_ep_prime is executing. We believe that
the interrupt causes an error return of hw_ep_prime. We tried to protect
hw_ep_prime from irqs and then no case of the infinite loop is occurred.

I want ask if it is appropriate way that turning off irq inside (threaded)
irq handlers. And should we explicitly turn off irqs before calling
hw_ep_prime?

Jeaho, do you use RT-Linux or standard Linux? The function hw_ep_prime is
only called at udc_irq which is registered as top-half irq handlers.
Why the timer interrupt is occurred when hw_ep_prime is executing?
